Description
A dark and provocative thriller exposes the fatal mistakes that can befall those who threaten the art world's status quo. Brenae Brasil, a rising star at Los Angeles Art College, is found dead after completing a documentary about female bodies and coercion. Her video art holds cryptic clues that Maggie Richter uncovers while working at the Rocque Museum. As she delves deeper into the mystery, Maggie finds herself playing a dangerous game with influential people in the shadowy art world of Los Angeles. The closer she gets to the truth, the more lies she threatens to expose. Maria Hummel's "genius for layering levels of meaning" shines through in this haunting investigation into power and the art world. A companion to Still Lives, this book is a worthwhile read for fans of psychological thrillers and mystery & detective fiction.
